DOUGH-MIXER.

Specificationof Letters Patent.

Application filed January 19,1905. $erial No. 241,733.

Dough-Mixers, of which the following is a specification, reference beingbad to the accompanying drawings.

My invention relates to an improved apparatus for mixing dough; and theobject of my invention is to provide a simple, practical, andinexpensive dough-mixing device, one that can be quickly attached to anytable or ledge, and one that can be sold at a low price.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of thedevice, showing the pan in section. Fig. 2 shows the arm and bearings insection. Fig. 3' is a view of the machine, showing the hingeably-mountedlever and the way to strip the dough from the mixing member. Fig. 4 is aview of the pan, showing another form of the means for steadying thepan.Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the device.

A represents a mixing-receptacle.

B represents the mixing member. B represents a crank mounted on saidmixing member and held fixed by a thumb-screw O, so that said mixingmember can be rotated in the vertical bearing C, said bearing being partof the arm D, which is hingeably sup ported in the bearing F, and beingmounted on the horizontal portion E of frame E, permitting the arm D tobe raised, as shown in Fig. 3, so that the dough can be convenientlypushed from the mixing member after it has been kneaded, and at the sametime the pan can be readily removed from the frame while the mixingmember is tilted out of the pan without detaching the mixing member.

In the kneading operation the dough tends to rise upon the mixingmember, and where the pan is shallow I find it necessary to raise thebearings C and F above the rim of the pan. Therefore I incline the frameupward from its junctions M M to its horizontal portion E.

I In the operation of my device it is essential that the pan be heldrigidly from turning during the kneading operation, and to this end Iprovide a frame having bent portions being rigidly connected by aconnecting member I and inclining downward from its junctions M M to itsclamping members G.

The frame is preferably made from tinned wire, and the lower portion ofsaid frame terminates in the clamping members G, the said members beingformed in such a manner that its two bent portions H H are held fixed bya connecting portion I, forming a clamping member for the purpose ofsteadying the pan and holding it rigidly during the kneading operationby pressing downward and forward on the end of the arm D, whichterminates into the handle J, while the pan is gripped by the groove K,the frame E being bent in such a manner that the bales or projections Lon the mixing-receptacle A engage the frame at its bent junctions M M,which serves to prevent the pan from turning and to hold it rigidly. Thehooked members H H can be of any convenient bend connected by a member,and I do not limit my claims in this respect.

I claim 1. In a dough-mixer, a vessel, a supporting-arm comprising avertical bearing, a horizontal bearing and a handle portion, said armbeing hingeably mounted on a frame, said frame comprising a supportingportion over said receptacle, bent hooked clamping portions connected tosaid supporting portion by bends, said hooked portions joined by aconnecting portion, a mixing member mounted to revolve in said verticalbearing and a means for revolving said mixing member, as and for thepurpose set forth.

2. In a dough-mixer, a vessel, asupport ing-arm comprising a verticalbearing and a horizontal bearing, a handle portion and a recess in saidarm, said arm being hingeably mounted on a frame, said frame comprisinga supporting portion over said receptacle, bent hooked clamping portionsconnected with said supporting portion by bends, said hooked clampingportions joined by a connecting portion, a mixing member mounted torevolve in said vertical bearing and a means for revolving said mixingmember, as and for the purpose set forth.

3. In a mixer, a vessel, an arm comprising a vertical bearing, and ahorizontal bearing, said arm being hingeably mounted on a frame, saidframe comprising a supporting portion over said receptacle, two armedportions one at each side of said receptacle connected to the supportingportion by bends,

said armed portions terminating in hooked 5. In a dough-mixer, thecombination With a mixing-receptacle of a vertically-rotatable mixingmember tiltably mounted on a frame over said receptacle, said framecomprising a horizontal supporting portion, arm portions, bent hookedclamping portions and a connecting portion for connecting said hookedportions, for the purpose specified.
